A Few of my SPS

[sahin]

Thank you. I need to add another small portion/structure on the top/left side. Just need to find the right pieces.

Regarding the transfer. Due to limited space, I could not maintained 2 tanks at 1 time. So I bought a Rubbermaid stock tank. What I've learned after the fact was, due to the chemicals/materials that were used to make these stock tanks I really needed to give it a good rinse ie vinegar bath. Lack of knowledge, I gave it a quick rinse, wiped it down with a towel, and transferred all of my livestock. Everything dead within 2 days. Fishes were dead in a few hours which I scooped out. Those that died overnight spike ammonia which lead to the loss of my colonies. I only have a few LPS and miraculously the only SPS that survived is my Oregon tort. Restocking will be an extremely slow process. This may very well be my last update for a long time.

I am so sorry to learn of this.

I had a similar event many years back...Though it is terrible, one must move on. I really hope your system recovers and the nest update shows some nice corals again.

Hey Nick!
How's the new set up?
Hope all is well..

Nothing much going on, Matt. Tank still cycling. Still don't see a thread of your tank. :-(

Looks great

Thank you.

Thank you, Sahin and Ian. No telling what the future holds for this tank. Taking it day by day...

I don't know what the 3rd SPS is, Matt. It was fragged from a wild colony. Out of all the frags that I've purchased, I really like that the most. Really looking forward to see how it will turn out once it colonize.

Thank you for following up. Nothing much has happened. Been restocking, trying my best to keep things alive/thriving, and continue to pray to the Reef God.

Tank is filled with mostly frags. My cheap camera doesn't have the capability to zoom in when the frag is too small. It will require some time before I can capture some decent pics. In the interim, I have managed to take a few for now. Hope you like them.

Have a terrific weekend, everyone!
